8. Gandalf the Gay

Geek-culture movies are getting pretty crazy in terms of casting. We've had too many Spidermans to count, and the fact that the Human Torch and Captain America are the same person is pretty disturbing. And that's just one of the Human Torches. The other Human Torch is also the villain in Black Panther, so as you can see, it gets wild. Still, nothing beats the fact that Ian McKellan has played both Magneto and Gandalf. That's like playing God and Jesus.

You may be familiar with the gay pride shirts that say "Some People Are Gay. Get Over it." It's a great shirt and a great sentiment, plus who doesn't love a good impact font? The OG, Ian McKellan, put his own spin on the shirt, making it so that no one else could possibly pull it off. If I ever see that shirt at a Goodwill though, you know I'm getting it.

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
